Former Manchester United defender and television pundit Gary Neville has strongly criticized Arsenal defender Gabriel for what he described as "play-acting" during Arsenal's Premier League victory over Liverpool on Sunday.
Neville, speaking during the post-match analysis, called the incident "absolutely embarrassing" and accused the Brazilian center-back of exaggerating contact to win a foul.
The match, part of the 2026/27 Premier League season, saw Arsenal secure a win at Anfield. Gabriel's actions drew immediate scrutiny from Neville, who argued that such behavior undermines the integrity of the game.
